Some of our largest systems run Windows because it supports engineering applications that we use regularly.? These applications have unattended runs that often take between ten and fifteen hours to complete.? We have taken the recommendation of the application supplier and equipped these Windows machines with UPS protection for 30 minutes at full load. The UPSs are Ethernet connected.? A support

Well, here's the tale: we got a "replacement kit" for some APC SmartUPS 3000 - rackmount UPSs. The "kit", costing about half of what APC is asking, is just the batteries, and you pull the tray out, open it up, and swap out the batteries. Except, I did this on one... and the replace battery light never went out. Not using apcupsd's apctest, not pushing the button. The

Hi Guys, I'd like to submit a patch to enable NUT to communicate with APC 5G UPSs. The current usbhid-ups driver recognises APC UPSs by the Vendor ID and Product ID of 0x051D and 0x0002. This needs to be amended with the new Product ID of 0x0003. (See attached file: apc-hid.patch) Secondly, when Nut polls the UPS via the interrupt channel, these will time out, resulting in frequent lost

I'm a long-time user of APC UPSs and apcupsd, but have been experiencing issues with recent APC units, although I have three BackUPS CS650 units which have had very little issue.. I've recently replaced the APC 1200 unit on my fileserver (running Slackware) with a CyberPower UPS and that appears to be well supported by NUT. However, I have an APC BX950MI unit which is currently being

Apparently there is only an Itanium client for RHEL according to APC? I need to setup a few boxes to shut down safely and don't know if the PCNS 2.2.3 Linux version will do it? Anyone know why it needs Java as well? (Blegh) Assuming APC is fairly popular, how do you guys shutdown your CentOS boxes with a UPS with a management card in it? Thanks! jlc -------------- next part -------------- An

Here's an odd one: I installed apcupsd, and it works with most of our UPSs. I'd swear it worked on this one. Then I replaced the Gin-u-wine APC batteries, which were dead, with new ones, non-APC. They're just dumb batteries, no chips or whatever on them. If I hook it up using a serial cable, I can get info. If I hook it up the way I had it, with APC's weird USB cable - and this is

Hi, I run os x yosemite and found out about NUT tonight. I messed around with fink and macports but get stuck very soon. I dont know how to install anything that doesnt have a .dmg or .pkg installer. Does anyone have a step by step (written in "for dummies" format on how to get this all to work? Just looking for a PowerChute alternative that actually lets me control and monitor my

I've been looking over the documentation and several installation guides for NUT, and I'm starting to get a little bit of a feel for what it is. But I'm still not clear whether what I'd *like* to accomplish is actually practical using NUT. Perhaps someone here can tell me if they've done something similar, or if I'm way off base. I would like to set up a Linux host as a

Hello, Just wanted to clarify: what sort of issues did you have with the APC? Since last year there have been several posts such as https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/issues/2347 about BX****MI (3-4 digits for wattage) series built (or flashed with firmware?) roughly in 2023-2024 as frequently reporting low-battery/replace-battery/all-good events in a short timeframe, both with NUT and

I have two UPSs, one is not connected to a computer. I am looking for a gadget that I can plug in to the other one so I can see the time remaining without a computer.

Hello All I just discoverd NUT and I'm lovin' it. I was very successful getting nut to monitor a CyberPower UPS along with having a Linux slave for a friend of mine. I've come to a snag on my personal system though. I currently have two Back-UPS XS 1200 APC UPSs, and I'm seeing notifications of low battery on both units. Now, both units are not showing 'low battery' on

We're looking at replacing some old APC SmartUPS 5000s with something that has USB so NUT can more easily talk with it (and yes, I've tried USB-RS232 adapters and every one I tried started kicking out errors within a few hours). One of the bids we have is for a "Tripp Lite UPS Smart Online 5000VA 4500W Rackmount 5kVA 200V/240V" as the potential replacement unit. I have no

Hello, This may be a really stupid question, but can a gel type marine battery be used in a UPS? Thanks

Two quick and simple questions; I want to install the "WinPower" software for my new UPS. On their web site, they have a tar.gz file available for download. I know the reasons for staying with RPM, if at all possible. I''ve Googled and Yahood for ""WinPower"+RPM+Linux and get hits, but no obvious RPM. I tried "yum install winpower" and the response was

I have two hosts. One is the ups-server. It's generator powered and can be assumed to never go down. This is the one that all the UPSs are connected to. It has: - the UPSs configured in upsd.conf - a "upsmon master" user in upsd.users - an empty upsmon.conf The other one is server-1. Its upsmon.conf contains: MONITOR test-apc at ups-server 1 monuser blah slave Now, what I see is

I'm looking to buy some new UPSs and am thinking of parting ways with APC to explore other brands. Can anyone suggest another brand that handles doing calibration runs (or maybe another brand doesn't need them) that I can automate with NUT? Thanks, -Ben

Hi everyone. I'm currently looking for a monitoring program for a HP PowerTrust UPS (A2998A) for Linux. It seems that nut supported these UPSs until version 1.4.3. What was the reason for the driver being removed from nut? Are there plans to reintegrate it? I was playing around with the UPS and put the results here: http://www.project-athlon.org/wiki/index.php/HP_PowerTrust_A2998A They
